Don't even get me started on the Raider game. You had a 60-yard TD run AND an 85-yard punt return.
You're not going to get miracles every week.

I think you're nit-picking a bit much... one play didn't decide any of those games. Discounting how well the defense played in each is not giving them enough credit.
So, the 250 rushing yards (on average) in the OAK and KC games had nothing to do with - you know ball control and everything.
The fact that the opposing teams had mediocre/poor QB play had something to do with it as well... and look at the remaining games, Brady is the only one that you can say is consistently really good.
If you want to say that 1 or 2 big plays won those games and that's the only reason... so be it, I just think you're over looking several other factors in each game.
